Living with Pim was a beautiful experience . She is an amazing host, very kind, and it's a pleasure to talk and laugh with her . She is such a smiley person that you fell the eco village just being around her. My purpose was to learn about Buddhism and I absolutely achieved my goal; now my mind is clearer. Thanks so much Pim. I really loved my time with you.

Unfortunately I was sick most of my week stay (sickness was unrelated to this experience). Pim was super friendly and helpful, always cooking 3 meals a day and kept checking up on me. At the beginning Pim was super clear with the schedule and what I'd be doing during the week. Even if I wasn't sick there's lots of free time during the day when it's too hot to work when you can either chill at the house or get a train and go explore another town for a bit. On the last couple days we went to some temples and Pim was like a tour guide, explaining the history and everything to me.

The eco village - 22/08 - 28/08: A genuinely unique experience in rural Thailand Staying at the eco village with Pim has been a genuinely memorable and unusual experience. Pim is an incredibly interesting and welcoming host. She is a Buddhist monk, and staying with her gave me an opportunity to experience aspects of Thai Buddhism and rural life that I simply would not have encountered

Pim's Mango farm was a wonderful experience for me :) At Pim's Farm I was the eco village enough to have my own private room with my own shower and bed. On the farm there are 100's of fresh mangos to eat (depending on the season) and lots of free time to yourself! Pim is such a sweetheart and gave me a wonderful experience while staying with her for 2 weeks :) Some things to know: Most days it is up to your own initiative to do work. It's very remote and there's little to do. You'll be left alone on the farm sometimes. This is a new project. If you are comfortable with these you'll love the farm!

Staying at Pim's farm for 7 days was one of the most beautiful first volunteer experiences I could ever ask for💛.Her knowledge about Buddhism truly touched me and helped me reconnect myself.The farm is still in process, some days is more some days less to do. We worked 2-3 hours a day in the morning from 8 am.At the same time it's important to take your own initiative and create small projects to really help her.Her Blue house is simple what's makes it so special.It brings you back to nature and inner peace.There is nothing around, small local market and it's Easley to reach from BK🌺THANKS!

I had an absolute amazing time with Pim, getting to learn about Buddism, Dharma and practice meditation together! I would 1000% recommend for someone willing to learn more about it. I enjoyed so much, it will be an learning experience i will take for forever, Thank you so much Pim 🧡🧡🧡 Teaching the kids English was also a wholesome experience, overall really great. The works is really not much so you have lots of free time, accommodation was great too!

My stay with Pim was a great experience that allowed me to connect with locals. Pim took me to museum, told me about Thailand's history, we visited temples and had long discussions about Buddhism that I found extremely interesting. Pim made sure I never went hungry and I tried loads of local food I never heard of before.
Children that I was teaching were great, but I only taught them for three days as it was holidays. Children are of different age and English level, so I had to find activities suitable for everyone. There was a lot of free time so be prepared for that.

I loved my time working with Pim. She was very fair and appreciative of the work we did together. I feel like we both learned from each other. She is very kind, warm and inviting and a hard worker. She would cook for me and make sure I was taken care of, her home is near to the train station so I’m down time you can take a 30 minute train ride to ayutthaya where the have temples, restaurants, coffee shops and malls. I had a fair amount of down time as we would work in the morning and evenings as Pim did not want us overworked in the Thailand heat. Pim is a fantastic host and I recommend it!

Pim is such a lovely person who will make sure you are well fed and comfortable! Meeting this children was delightful. Learning about Pims life as a female monk was such a unique experience, thank you for sharing it with me! Pim was very fast to communicate directions and helped me book my bus for onward travel. You will have a lot of free time so ideal if you have work to do. Theres not too many attractions in the nearby area, but definitely a special way to experience authentic life of every day Thai people.

This exchange with Pim is way more than it seems. She taught me soo much about Thailand's history and we went to so many temples in the area. I spent two days with the kids helping them with English and she provided worksheets and other materials. The room was spacious and comfortable and Pim was mindful of making food that wasn't so spicy for me. The only thing is to be flexible, I was supposed to meet Pim at one location but I ended up meeting her somewhere else. She was very responsive and helped me to arrive safely. It was an awesome experience!
